Abstract

A connection element for at least two components (15,7) of a conveyor support or guide structure, of the type comprising a body (1) presenting a first part (2) comprising first means (3) for removably fixing a portion (15A) of one (15) of said components, and a second part (5) comprising second means (6) for removably fixing a tubular portion (7A) of said other component (7), in which the first and second fixing means (3, 6) are distinct and separated from each other, the first fixing means (3) comprise a plurality of slotted apertures (3A-D), and the second fixing means (6) comprise an expansion member (8) able to expand within said tubular portion (7A) to fix it to said second part (5).

Claims (13)

1. A connection element for at least two components (15, 7) of a conveyor support or guide structure, of the type comprising a body (1) presenting a first part (2) comprising first means (3) for removably fixing a portion (15A) of one (15) of said components, and a second part (5) comprising second means (6) for removably facing a tubular portion (7A) of said other component (7), characterised in that the first and second fixing means (3,6) are distinct and separated from each other, the first fixing means (3) comprising a plurality of slotted apertures (3A-D), the second fixing means (6) comprising an expansion member (8) able to expand within said tubular portion (7A) to fix it to said second part (5).
2. An element as claimed in claim 1, characterised in that the slotted apertures (3A) are at least two in number, and are mutually concentric.
3. An element as claimed in claim 2, characterised in that the slots are disposed symmetrical about a horizontal axis (O) or vertical axis (V) of the first part (2) of the body (1) of said element.
4. A connection element as claimed in claim 1, characterised in that the second fixing means (6) comprise, for said expansion member (8), an operating member (9) housed in the body (1) in such a manner as to be accessible from and operable from above.
5. A connection element as claimed in claim 4, characterised in that the operating member (9) is provided in a seat (5D) provided in its second part(5), said seat being open upperly such as to enable an operating portion of said member to emerge.
6. An element as claimed in claim 5, characterised in that the upper aperture of the seat (5D) for the operating member is provided in an intermediate portion joining together the two parts (2,5) of the element body (1).
7. An element as claimed in claim 6, characterised in that the upper aperture is provided between two stiffening webs (2B) connecting the upper part (2) to the lower part (5).
8. An element as claimed a claim 1, characterised in that the first part (2) presents a flat portion (2A) comprising the slotted apertures (3A).
9. An element as claimed in claim 8, characterised in that the flat portion is of oval shape.
10. An element as claimed in claim 1, characterised in that the body (1) is formed in one piece.
11. An element as claimed in claim 10, characterised in that the body (1) houses in its interior the second fixing means.
12. An element as claimed in claim 1, characterised in that the second part (5) terminates lowerly with a plurality of tongues (5A) arranged to interfere with an expansion member (8A).
13, An element as claimed in claim 1, characterised in that the second part (5) lowerly comprises an annular seat for housing a tubular end portion (P) of the second component (7).
